## When to use this skill
To write internal communications, use this skill for:
- 3P updates (Progress, Plans, Problems)
- Company newsletters
- FAQ responses
- Status reports
- Leadership updates
- Project updates
- Incident reports

## How to use this skill

To write any internal communication:

1. **Identify the communication type** from the request
2. **Load the appropriate guideline file** from the `examples/` directory:
    - `examples/3p-updates.md` - For Progress/Plans/Problems team updates
    - `examples/company-newsletter.md` - For company-wide newsletters
    - `examples/faq-answers.md` - For answering frequently asked questions
    - `examples/general-comms.md` - For anything else that doesn't explicitly match one of the above
3. **Follow the specific instructions** in that file for formatting, tone, and content gathering

If the communication type doesn't match any existing guideline, ask for clarification or more context about the desired format.

writing-eval-sloptastic

5
from m31uk3/ai-skills

Quantitative framework for detecting AI-generated "slop" in prose through systematic analysis of structural, lexical, rhetorical, and logical patterns. Use when analyzing text authenticity, evaluating writing quality, detecting AI-generated content, or assessing whether prose has characteristic AI patterns like excessive parallelism, abstraction laddering, chiasmus abuse, platitudes, tautologies, or rhetorical overengineering.

validated-knowledge-synthesis

5
from m31uk3/ai-skills

Transform raw, unorganized information into actionable knowledge through systematic validation. Use when users want to synthesize information from multiple sources (documents, URLs, transcripts, notes) into structured knowledge documents. Supports three document types - curated context (default, optimized for recall), guidance (implementation-focused narrative), and reference (quick lookup). Combines convergent synthesis with tension preservation to maintain productive contradictions. Triggers on requests like "synthesize this information", "create knowledge document from these sources", "transform these notes into actionable guidance", or "help me organize this research".

transcribing-youtube

5
from m31uk3/ai-skills

Download and transcribe YouTube videos into clean, deduplicated Markdown documents with chapter headings. Wraps yt-dlp to fetch subtitles (manual or auto-generated), removes the rolling-text triplication artifacts from auto-subs, inserts chapter markers from video metadata, and produces both a timestamped transcript and a prose-only version. Use when the user wants to: (1) transcribe a YouTube video, (2) get a transcript or subtitles from YouTube, (3) create an InfoNugget from a video, (4) extract text from a YouTube URL or video ID, or (5) mentions yt-dlp, YouTube transcript, or video subtitles.

synthesize-knowledge-graph

5
from m31uk3/ai-skills

Transform source materials into K-DAGs (Knowledge DAGs) — modular, curated domain knowledge structured as directed acyclic graphs with typed edges, mermaid visualization, and prose context. Use when users want to build knowledge graphs from documents, synthesize multiple sources into structured ontologies, intersect existing K-DAGs to discover emergent relationships, or create machine-readable knowledge structures that resist context rot. Triggers on: 'build a knowledge graph', 'create a K-DAG', 'intersect these knowledge sources', 'map the relationships between these documents', 'synthesize an ontology from these sources'.

skill-resiliency

5
from m31uk3/ai-skills

This skill should be used when the user asks to "add resiliency to a skill", "make this skill more robust", "improve error handling", "add validation mechanisms", "create self-correcting behavior", or discusses determinism, robustness, error correction, or homeostatic patterns in Agent Skills. Applies biological resiliency principles from Michael Levin's work to Agent Skill design.

prompt-driven-development

5
from m31uk3/ai-skills

Transform rough ideas into detailed design documents with implementation plans. Use when a user wants to develop an idea into a complete specification, create a design document from a concept, plan a feature implementation, or mentions "PDD", "prompt-driven development", "idea to design", "design doc from idea", or wants to systematically refine requirements before building. Guides through requirements clarification, research, detailed design, and implementation planning.

codebase-summary

5
from m31uk3/ai-skills

Analyze a codebase and generate comprehensive documentation including architecture, components, interfaces, workflows, and dependencies. Creates an AI-optimized knowledge base (index.md) and can consolidate into AGENTS.md, README.md, or CONTRIBUTING.md. Use when the user wants to document a codebase, create AGENTS.md, understand system architecture, generate developer documentation, or asks to "summarize the codebase".
